CONtBlNATION-TOOL.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 731,859, dated June 23,1903.

Application filed July 13, 1901. Serial No. 68,223. (No model.)

To all w/wm it may concern:

Be it known that 1, WILLIAM R. CLARK, a citizen of the United States,residing at Tehachapi, in'the county of Kern and State of California,have invented a new anduseful= fication, Figure 1 is a perspective Viewof a of a bolt or rivet C.

the same. Fig. 3 is an edge view. Fig. 4 is a detail view showing thejaws open. Fig; 5

is a view showing the jaws closed, said view being taken from the sideopposite to that shown in Fig. 2., Fig. 6 is a section on the line 6 6of Fig. 3. Fig. 7 is a section on the line 7 7 of Fig. 2.

In carrying out my invention I employ two jaws A and B, pivotallyconnected by means The ends of the jaws A and B are formed into nippersA and B, respectively, and wire-cutting notches A and B are formedadjacent to the inner ends of the Dipper-points for the purpose ofcutting wire. The rear portion of the jaw A is in the form of an openframe, a portion thereof being turned back and sharpened, as shown at Ato provide a can-opener, and the extreme end isshaped to produce ascrew-driver A Scale-marksA are produced upon one mem- 'ientpencil-sharpener.

ber, and a notch A is produced adjacent the can-opener to be used as aspoke-wrench. The open-frame portion of the jaw A can be used as awrench for various-sized nuts. The end of the jaw B is curved orpointed, as shown at B said curved and pointed end serving at one timeas a cork-extractor and another as one leg of a caliper. The point Aupon the jaw A serves as the other point of said caliper. A circularopening B is produced in the jaw B, the edges being beveled, as shown,thereby providing a conven- The edge of the jaw B is also sharpened andadapted to form one member of a pair of shears, the sharpened edge A ofthe jaw A forming the other member. The edge B does not meet theopposite side of the jaw A, thereby forming a slot 13 in which the shankof a button can be placed while thebntton is being polished.

It will thus be seen that I provide a combination-tool embodying anumber of different implements all combined and arranged for convenientoperation and so located and arranged that one part will not interferewith the operation of another part.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, anddesire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

A wrench, one member of which is a triangular-shapedframe,asecondirregular-shaped member pivoted to the first memberadjacent its narrowest portion, the said second member having its widestportion at said pivotal point, and being notched adjacent said point andtapered at its adjacent end, said tapered portion and the narrow portionof the firstnamed member being adapted to serve as grippingjaws. j
